Schubert's winter travel information

I'm sorry about LZ. . . Just interested in winter travel, I found an article to read. This information will be used. . .

The Austrian composer Schubert Franz Peter (1797- 1828) was born in Vienna. At the age of eight, he studied violin with his father and piano with his brother ignaz. 1 1 (1808) was absorbed as a singer of the Vienna Imperial Temple Choir and a student of the Imperial School. Later, he became the captain of Temple Band and often served as conductor. /kloc-wrote 1 song "The Elegy of Haga" when he was 0/4 years old. In the history of European music development, Schubert is an artist who connects the past with the future. On the one hand, he inherited the German-Austrian classical music traditions of Mozart and Beethoven; On the one hand, through the innovation and development of tradition, he opened up a new world for later composers and was called the first romantic musician. Schubert's life is short, but his creative fields are extensive, involving symphony, chamber music, piano, opera and religious music, especially his artistic songs, which are unique in content and form, fully demonstrating the unique style of Schubert's music.

As the founder of romantic music school, Schubert died only 1 year later than Beethoven, but it can be said that he and Beethoven belong to two eras. By the time he stepped into life, the wave of the French Revolution that shook Europe and influenced Beethoven's world outlook and creation had vanished, and the whole European continent was restoring the feudal dynasty. The slogan of "freedom, equality and fraternity" that inspired the German and Austrian people in those years has been eclipsed by the bloodshed and violence in the revolution and Napoleon's invasion, and it can no longer attract Schubert's generation of young people. He is not "rational", but advocates "fantasy". Romanticism, as a new artistic trend of thought, is popular in Germany and Austria and appears in almost all artistic fields. It is not only the expression of romanticism in creation, but more importantly, it reflects the world outlook and artistic view of this literary school. The theme of social ethics and heroism in Beethoven's works quietly passed away in Schubert's creation.

He pays attention to the life circle of ordinary people and expresses his feelings and fantasies about "self". He composed music for a large number of famous contemporary poems, which were widely related to social life at that time. At the same time, Schubert sometimes uses shepherds, wandering grinders and girls persecuted by death to express his feelings, and sometimes personifies flowers, birds, fish and insects, all of which reflect his ever-changing thoughts in his personal inner world. He used many songs to praise nature and spring, such as On the Peak and Listen, Listen, Lark. Or enthusiastically praise art and love, such as: to music, the messenger of love, serenade; Or pray to God and heaven, such as "The Suffering Man" and "Ode to the Virgin", and use these beautiful things to build his ideal kingdom, so as to obtain happiness and comfort that reality cannot give. Like other romantic artists, he eulogized "fantasy" and declared that "you are the treasure of mankind and the inexhaustible source"; He often rejoices that he is "decorating this reality with my imagination as much as possible".

Schubert's vocal divertimento "A Winter Journey" and "The Beautiful Mill Girl" are both based on the poems of the same name by German romantic poet Miao Lei, which can be regarded as the representative works of Schubert's artistic songs. According to a friend's memory, the long poem "Winter Journey" strongly shocked the composer's mind, and he devoted himself to creating a vocal suite composed of 24 songs connected together. It can be said that this is a set of narrative lyric music poems, a drama with music. Schubert deliberately depicts the inner world of the characters, vividly portraying the lonely, lonely, dissatisfied with reality, hopeless pursuit of the ideal kingdom and ultimately depressed soul in Mill's poems. He left the familiar city and the ungrateful lover who married the rich man, walked in the endless winter wilderness, looked at the wind flags and frozen rivers in the north wind, listened to the sound of snow and the jingle of mail trucks, avoided the evil dogs and ominous crows in the forest, and was deeply moved by the scene before him. He deeply felt the indifference and desolation in the world. He could not get sympathy and pity here, and he would always be a stranger and a wanderer. He wants to avoid the flashy world and seek inner peace in the wandering journey. When all the efforts to get rid of the painful fate finally failed, he pulled himself together, cursed the world and followed a lonely old beggar. It can be said that this is Schubert's inner revelation, which profoundly reflects the thoughts and feelings of composers and their contemporaries. Schubert made great efforts to explore rhythm and tone in Miao Lei's beautiful poems, which made the divertimento contain infinite poetry. He followed the romantic thought of "breaking the boundaries of various literary and artistic categories", making plays in music and poems in singing; He also broke some strict norms of the classical school, and created melodies, harmonies, tonal layouts and musical forms according to the content and rhythm of poetry. In particular, he improved the expressive force of piano accompaniment, making it not only simulate images and sounds externally, but vividly depict the inner feelings of characters under the natural environment, so that lyrics, melodies and accompaniment can be integrated into a perfect whole.

The composer's breakthrough and development of tradition is not only reflected in his vocal divertimento such as Winter Journey, but also widely used in his other songs. Schubert's artistic songs were criticized by social conservatives at that time because of their unusual and novel sound effects.

Good night is 1 of the suite "A Winter Journey". The piano begins with sadness, the downward tone with a heavy sigh, and the steady marching rhythm immediately shows the basic tone of the whole suite and depicts the gloomy mood of the travelers who have just set off.

In the second "Wind Flag", on the one hand, piano accompaniment creates a changeable flying scene of the wind flag, on the other hand, it sets off the abnormal excitement and resentment of lovelorn travelers with a fast sound pattern.

Bodhi Tree (No.5) is the most popular song in the divertimento. Comfortable and gentle melody, with the light and dark tones of E homophonic, sets off the hero's beautiful past and bleak present.

Schubert's melody is inextricably linked with folk songs. He adapted a large number of folk songs of various nationalities in Germany and Austria (including Austria, Germany, Hungary, Czech Republic, etc.). ), and his previous works "Wild Rose" and "Trout" are as simple, clear and moving as folk songs. At that time, it was a very prominent phenomenon that German and Austrian romantic artists collected and arranged their own fairy tales, legends and songs, which was caused by the national pride aroused in the Napoleonic Wars on the one hand, and because they felt that the reality was too ugly, it was better to indulge in those innocent and wonderful fairy tales and legends that were far from the reality.

The melody of Bodhi Tree has a kind and simple Austrian folk song style. After Schubert's death, this song was widely sung in Germany and Austria, and later generations even thought it was really a folk song.

By the ninth "Jack-o 'lantern", the traveler's excitement gradually subsided. He felt that "human happiness and human pain are as elusive as a ghost fire", and he wanted to bury his pain like a river, which would eventually flow into the sea. This heavy thinking is accompanied by a slow, deep but still fluctuating tone.

The poem 1 1 Spring Dream contains three artistic conceptions: in a dream-flowers and birds, joy and happiness; Wake up-all good things are disillusioned, only darkness and cold, crows are noisy; Continue to "talk nonsense"-imagine that the green leaves will open in winter and love will come again. The composer used three different musical images to describe this different picture: 1 is a lively and joyful tune, in the prelude, the piano imitates the singing of birds, and in the dream, it becomes a smooth accompaniment; In the second paragraph, chords suddenly appear, changing one after another in four minor tunes of e-d-g-a, and declaring disillusionment with cold recitation; The beat of the third paragraph changed from 6/ 8 to 2/ 4, and the melody was soft but with inherent melancholy. Three seemingly isolated paragraphs, by skillfully using the transformation and unification of tonality (A-a-A), maintain the integrity of the three-paragraph structure.

In the 14 issue of White Hair, the traveler finally reached a pessimistic fatalism conclusion; Life is unbearable, and he is looking forward to the moment of "liberation". The tone of crying is an exaggerated reading tone.

The 20th "road sign" and 20th "hotel" indicate that the final destination of travelers is the grave. Schubert himself, from the beginning of his life journey, has been looking for a way out and conclusions. However, as he lamented in a poem written by 1820: "People stumble in the dark and look for their goals all the way, but all in vain, and they will never find the truth." Therefore, the sad and painful ending of the traveler in the song reflects the composer's disappointment and despair, which is also the reason why Miao Lei's poems caused Schubert to sing strongly. Helpless, the only attempt to relieve the pain cannot be realized. The "hotel" of the tomb does not accept travelers, so he has to summon up his courage again and continue to embark on a long and endless journey of life.

The speed of the 22nd "Courage" is quite fast, but the tonality changes with each phrase. (g - G- g - G？ ), the song ends in G major and the piano ends in G minor. This kind of treatment has an ironic meaning to "courage".

The Old Artist is the end of the divertimento. Travelers see their destiny and "future" in old beggars who are indifferent to human sufferings. From beginning to end, the monotonous sound of the 8-tone piano box is like the singing of an old artist and the inner groans of poets and composers, thus ending the whole suite. The artistic features mentioned in the above selections also run through other songs in this suite. The distinctive features and melodic beauty of Schubert's artistic songs, such as the strict logic of songs and music, have obvious infiltration in his symphonies, piano works and other forms of works.

Winter Journey is Schubert's most important and influential vocal suite, which clearly shows the composer's unique artistic temperament and the relationship between Schubert's romanticism and social life. From his early songs "Devil", "Trout" and "death and the maiden" to his last songs "Land God" and "Fantasy", although he tried his best to avoid reality subjectively, these works still reflected reality. Schubert's position in the history of music is not only because he created romantic music, but also because his original romantic music art expressed the social and life ideals of ordinary people at that time. Schubert and his artistic songs typically created a romantic school embodied in music. Moreover, songs accompanied by piano, a traditional music genre, have been promoted to a perfect artistic height by Schubert. Many of his famous artistic songs, such as Trout, Devil, Wanderer, Bodhi Tree, Dream of Spring, God of the Earth and so on. , is still popular today, entirely because his music image is vivid, vivid and profound, and can stand the test of history. In order to establish the image of poetry, Schubert wrote a lot of songs, using simple and beautiful melodies, rich harmony changes, clever tone contrast and poetic and appropriate coordination of the piano, which is still worth our study and research. His songs have reached an unprecedented new artistic realm and are the artistic crystallization of romantic music.
